Description

This security bulletin contains information about 1 vulnerability.


1) Resource exhaustion (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-27145)

CWE-ID: CWE-400 - Resource exhaustion

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green


The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to cause a denial of service.

The vulnerability exists due to uncontrolled resource consumption in crypto/x509 certificate hostname verification when processing certificates with a large DNS subject alternative name list. A remote attacker can present a specially crafted certificate to cause a denial of service.

The excessive verification cost occurs before the certificate chain is built, so the overhead is incurred even for untrusted certificates.
